CLASS II – COMMERCIAL/GENERAL ACCESS VEHICULAR GATE OPERATOR II A vehicular gate operator (or system) intended for use in a commercial location or building such as a multi-family housing unit (five or more single family units), hotel, garages, retail store, or other buildings accessible by or servicing the general public. CLASS III – INDUSTRIAL/LIMITED ACCESS VEHICULAR GATE OPERATOR III A vehicular gate operator (or system) intended for use in an industrial location or building such as a factory or loading dock area or other locations not accessible by or intended to service the general public. CLASS IV– RESTRICTED ACCESS VEHICULAR GATE OPERATOR IV A vehicular gate operator (or system) intended for use in a guarded industrial location or building such as an airport security area or other restricted access locations not servicing the general public, in which unauthorized access is prevented via supervision by security personnel. UL325 ENTRAPMENT PROTECTION REQUIREMENTS This vehicular gate operator must be installed with at least two independent entrapment protection means as specified in the table below. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION HORIZONTAL SLIDE AND SWING GATE OPERATOR GATE OPERATOR ENTRAPMENT PROTECTION TYPES Type A Inherent (built into the operator) entrapment protection system Type B1 Non-contact sensors such as photoelectric sensors Type B2 Contact sensors such as edge sensors To reduce the risk of INJURY or DEATH: • READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS. • NEVER let children operate or play with gate controls. Keep the remote control away from children. • ALWAYS keep people and objects away from the gate. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE MOVING GATE. • Test the gate operator monthly. The gate MUST reverse on contact with a rigid object or reverse when an object activates the noncontact sensors. After adjusting the force or the limit of travel, retest the gate operator. Failure to adjust and retest the gate operator properly can increase the risk of INJURY or DEATH. • Use the emergency release ONLY when the gate is not moving. • KEEP GATES PROPERLY MAINTAINED. Read the owner’s manual. Have a qualified service person make repairs to gate hardware. • The entrance is for vehicles ONLY. Pedestrians MUST use separate entrance. • SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. The same type of device shall not be used for both entrapment protection means. Use of a single device to cover both the opening and closing directions is in accordance with the requirement; however, a single device is not required to cover both directions. This operator is provided with Type A. The installer is required to install additional entrapment protection devices in each entrapment zone. 2 SAFETY SAFETY INSTALLATION INFORMATION 1. Vehicular gate systems provide convenience and security. Gate systems are comprised of many component parts. The gate operator is only one component. Each gate system is specifically designed for an individual application. 2. Gate operating system designers, installers and users must take into account the possible hazards associated with each individual application. Improperly designed, installed or maintained systems can create risks for the user as well as the bystander. Gate systems design and installation must reduce public exposure to potential hazards. 3. 4. 9. 10. A minimum of two (2) WARNING SIGNS shall be installed, one on each side of the gate where easily visible. 11. For a gate operator utilizing a non-contact sensor: a. Reference owner’s manual regarding placement of non-contact sensor for each type of application. See Install Entrapment Protection section. A gate operator can create high levels of force in its function as a component part of a gate system. Therefore, safety features must be incorporated into every design. Specific safety features include: b. Care shall be exercised to reduce the risk of nuisance tripping, such as when a vehicle trips the sensor while the gate is still moving. • Edges Sensors (contact) • Guards for Exposed Rollers • Photoelectric Sensors • Screen Mesh • Vertical Posts • Instructional and Precautionary Signage c. One or more non-contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exists, such as the perimeter reachable by a moving gate or barrier. 12. For a gate operator utilizing a contact sensor such as an edge sensor: Install the gate operator only when: a. The operator is appropriate for the construction and the usage class of the gate. a. One or more contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exists, such as at the leading edge, trailing edge and post mounted both inside and outside of a vehicular horizontal slide gate. b. All openings of a horizontal slide gate are guarded or screened from the bottom of the gate to a minimum of 6 feet (1.8 m) above the ground to prevent a 2-1/4 inches (6 cm) diameter sphere from passing through the openings anywhere in the gate, and in that portion of the adjacent fence that the gate covers in the open position. b. A hard wired contact sensor shall be located and its wiring arranged so the communication between the sensor and the gate operator is not subject to mechanical damage. c. A wireless device such as one that transmits radio frequency (RF) signals to the gate operator for entrapment protection functions shall be located where the transmission of the signals are not obstructed or impeded by building structures, natural landscaping or similar obstruction. A wireless device shall function under the intended end-use conditions. c. All exposed pinch points are eliminated or guarded, and guarding is supplied for exposed rollers. 5. 6. The Stop and/or Reset (if provided separately) must be located in the line-of-sight of the gate. Activation of the reset control shall not cause the operator to start. The operator is intended for installation only on gates used for vehicles. Pedestrians must be supplied with a separate access opening. The pedestrian access opening shall be designed to promote pedestrian usage. Locate the gate such that persons will not come in contact with the vehicular gate during the entire path of travel of the vehicular gate. d. One or more contact sensors shall be located on the inside and outside leading edge of a swing gate. Additionally, if the bottom edge of a swing gate is greater than 6 inches (152 mm) above the ground at any point in its arc of travel, one or more contact sensors shall be located on the bottom edge. The gate must be installed in a location so that enough clearance is supplied between the gate and adjacent structures when opening and closing to reduce the risk of entrapment. Swinging gates shall not open into public access areas. 7. The gate must be properly installed and work freely in both directions prior to the installation of the gate operator. 8. Controls intended for user activation must be located at least 6 feet (1.8 m) away from any moving part of the gate and where the user is prevented from reaching over, under, around or through the gate to operate the controls. Outdoor or easily accessible controls shall have a security feature to prevent unauthorized use. Exception: Emergency access controls only accessible by authorized personnel (e.g. fire, police) may be placed at any location in the line-of-sight of the gate. e. One or more contact sensors shall be located at the bottom edge of a vertical barrier (arm). 3 SAFETY GATE CONSTRUCTION INFORMATION Vehicular gates should be installed in accordance with ASTM F2200: Standard Specification for Automated Vehicular Gate Construction.

Install enclosed-style gate tracks and roller guards. • Place screen mesh 6 feet (1.8 m) high on the gate to prevent access through openings anywhere the gate may travel. • Mount controls at least 6 feet (1.8 m) from the gate or ANY moving part of the gate. • Install Warning signs on EACH side of gate in PLAIN VIEW. Permanently secure each Warning sign in a suitable manner using fastening holes. • This operator is intended for vehicular use only. To prevent INJURY to pedestrians, a separate pedestrian access should be supplied, visible from the gate. Locate the pedestrian access where there is not a chance of INJURY at any point during full movement of the gate. • Contact sensors MUST be located at the leading and trailing edges, and post mounted both inside and outside a horizontal swing gate. Non-contact sensors such as photoelectric sensors MUST be mounted across the gate opening and operate during BOTH the open and close cycles. • Entrapment protection devices MUST be installed to protect anyone who may come near a moving gate. • Locate entrapment protection devices to protect in BOTH the open and close gate cycles. • Locate entrapment protection devices to protect between moving gate and RIGID objects, such as posts or walls. • Too much force on gate will interfere with proper operation of safety reversal system. • NEVER increase force beyond minimum amount required to move gate. • NEVER use force adjustments to compensate for a binding or sticking gate. • If one control (force or travel limits) is adjusted, the other control may also need adjustment. • After ANY adjustments are made, the safety reversal system MUST be tested. Gate MUST reverse on contact with a rigid object. • To AVOID damaging gas, power or other underground utility lines, contact underground utility locating companies BEFORE digging more than 18 inches (46 cm) deep. • ALWAYS wear protective gloves and eye protection when changing the battery or working around the battery compartment. INSTALLATION TIPS DO's • Weld a horizontal bar across entire gate on any installation for strength. Make sure that the operator is mounted level or it will not function properly. • The operator can be mounted on top of the gate frame. • The operator must be installed at least 12 inches from the ground. • Make sure there is slack in the operator cable. Operator Cable ! ! DON'Ts • DO NOT install upside down. • DO NOT install on ANY pedestrian passageways, doorways, or gates. • DO NOT install next to sprinklers or any area that may expose the bottom of operator to water. • DO NOT over-bend the operator cable. Doing this will cause the wires to eventually break. • DO NOT install on uphill or downhill gates. • DO NOT weld the crossbar on just a few pickets, or they could bend. 9 INSTALLATION NOTE: The ideal installation measurements are A = 7-3/4" (19.7 cm) and B = 8-1/2" (21.6 cm). If different measurements are used, the sum of A and B cannot be greater than 18" (45.7 cm). STEP 1 POSITION THE BRACKETS DIMENSION CHART A B If this operator is a replacement for a Miracle-One™ operator, use the existing post bracket and gate bracket.

Watertight Connector Extension Cable GATE 2 GATE 1 (Control Board) Connector Connector Nut Extension Cable (from secondary operator) Primary Operator Secondary Operator SET THE BIPART DELAY (SINGLE CONTROL BOX) Occasionally in dual gate installations, one gate will need to open first and close second. This would happen if there was an ornamental overhang on one gate or if using a solenoid lock, for example. This gate is called the Primary gate and needs to be connected to Gate 1 connections on the control board. Thus, it is preferred that the control box be installed on the same side as this gate. If there is no appropriate location on that side for the control box, then mount the control box on the opposite side, but connect the operator closest to the control box to the Gate 2 connector and the operator on the opposite side to the Gate 1 connector. 1. OUTSIDE PROPERTY Primary Gate The BIPART DELAY switch on the control board needs to be set to the ON position. Primary Gate - Connect to Gate 1 Connector on Control Board. The following illustration shows a dual gate configuration with a decorative overlapping piece on the outside of the gate. SET THE BIPART DELAY (DUAL CONTROL BOX) BIPART DELAY/SYNCHRONIZED CLOSE The LOCK/BIPART DELAY switch is used with dual control box applications and serves two functions: • BIPART DELAY: The BIPART DELAY is used in applications where a mag-lock, solenoid lock, or decorative overlay would require one gate to close before the other. The control box with the LOCK/BIPART DELAY switch ON will delay from the close limit when opening and be the first to close from the open limit. • SYNCHRONIZED CLOSE: The BIPART DELAY is also used in applications where one gate travels a longer distance than the other. To synchronize the closing of the gates, set the LOCK/BIPART DELAY switch to ON for both control boxes. 17 INSTALLATION To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a moving gate: • Entrapment protection devices MUST be installed to protect anyone who may come near a moving gate. • Locate entrapment protection devices to protect in BOTH the open and close gate cycles. • Locate entrapment protection devices to protect between moving gate and RIGID objects, such as posts or walls. STEP 7 INSTALL ENTRAPMENT PROTECTION At least one external monitored entrapment protection device is required prior to gate movement (effective January of 2016). A monitored device sends a pulsed signal to the operator so the operator is aware of the device. If the operator does not receive the signal from the device it will not run. An entrapment zone is every location or point of contact where a person can become entrapped between a moving gate and a stationary object. All gate operator systems REQUIRE two independent entrapment protection systems for each entrapment zone. This operator contains an inherent (internal) entrapment protection system and REQUIRES the addition of an external entrapment protection system (non-contact photoelectric sensor or contact edge sensor) for EACH entrapment zone. Your application may contain one or many entrapment zones. Property owners are obligated to test entrapment protection devices monthly. NON-CONTACT SENSORS If the photoelectric sensor beam gets blocked while the gate is moving, the gate will stop and reverse for 4 seconds. The gate will not be able to travel in that direction until the obstruction is cleared. CPS-UN4 or CPS-RPEN4GM monitored photoelectric sensors MUST be used. If a monitored photoelectric sensor is not working or loses power or the beam is blocked, then ALL gate operation in that direction will stop. Monitored Photoelectric Sensors Sensors for Open Cycle (Outside Property) (Inside Property) Sensors for Close Cycle 18 INSTALLATION STEP 7 continued... INSTALL ENTRAPMENT PROTECTION There are three options for wiring the entrapment protection devices depending on the specific device and how the device will function. Refer to the wiring diagram or the specific entrapment protection device manual for more information. These entrapment protection device inputs are for monitored devices, which include pulsed photoelectric sensors, resistive edge sensors, and pulsed edge sensors. NOTE: Only one monitored entrapment protection device may be wired to each input. Close Photoelectric Sensors Close Edge CLOSE EYES/INTERRUPT (2 Terminals) The CLOSE EYES/INTERRUPT input is for photoelectric sensor entrapment protection for the close direction. When an obstruction is sensed during gate closing the gate will open to the full open position and resets the Timer-to-Close. This input will be disregarded during gate opening. Open Photoelectric Sensors CLOSE EDGE (2 Terminals) The CLOSE EDGE input is for edge sensor entrapment protection for the close direction. When an obstruction is sensed during gate closing the gate will reverse for 4 seconds then stop, disengaging the Timer-to-Close. This input will be disregarded during gate opening. OPEN EYES/EDGE (2 Terminals) The OPEN EYES/EDGE input is for photoelectric sensor or edge sensor entrapment protection for the open direction. When an obstruction is sensed during gate opening the gate will reverse for 4 seconds then stop. This input will be disregarded during gate closing. 19 OR Open Edge INSTALLATION STEP 8 OPERATOR POWER SOURCE 120 VAC POWER WIRING The standard control box can be wired for either 120 Vac or 240 Vac.

Turn the release lever clockwise 180° back to the engaged position. This engages the motor. 2. Turn the key clockwise 180°. This locks the release lever. The operator is now engaged. 3. Fasten warning signs to the gate with cable ties. Warning signs MUST be installed on both sides of the gate and in plain view. Release Lever ADJUSTMENT LIMIT AND FORCE ADJUSTMENT To reduce the risk of SEVERE INJURY or DEATH: • Without a properly installed safety reversal system, persons (particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED or KILLED by a moving gate. • Too much force on gate will interfere with proper operation of safety reversal system. • NEVER increase force beyond minimum amount required to move gate. • NEVER use force adjustments to compensate for a binding or sticking gate. • If one control (force or travel limits) is adjusted, the other control may also need adjustment. • After ANY adjustments are made, the safety reversal system MUST be tested. Gate MUST reverse on contact with a rigid object. INTRODUCTION Your operator is designed with electronic controls to make travel limit and force adjustments easy. The adjustments allow you to program where the gate will stop in the open and close position. The electronic controls sense the amount of force required to open and close the gate. The force is adjusted automatically when you program the limits but should be fine tuned using the REVERSAL FORCE dial on the control board (refer to Fine Tune the Force section) to compensate for environmental changes. The limits can be set using the control board (following page) or a remote control (refer to Limit Setup with a Remote Control in the Appendix). Setting the limits with a remote control requires a 3-button remote control programmed to OPEN, CLOSE, and STOP. NOTE: The Test Buttons on the control board will not work until the limits have been set. 22 ADJUSTMENT LIMIT AND FORCE ADJUSTMENT continued... For dual gate applications the limits will have to be set for each operator. The gate MUST be attached to the operator before setting the limits and force.

SET OPEN SET CLOSE PRESS & RELEASE TEST BUTTONS 1 OBSTRUCTION TEST XMITTER 2. Place a solid object between the open gate and a rigid structure. Ensure that the gate, the solid object, and the rigid structure can withstand the forces generated during this obstruction test. 3. Run the gate in the close direction. The gate should stop and reverse upon contact with the solid object. If the gate does not reverse off the solid object, reduce the force setting by turning the force control slightly counter-clockwise. The gate should have enough force to reach both the open and close limits, but MUST reverse after contact with a solid object. 4. Repeat the test for the open direction. STOP Open and close the gate with the test buttons, ensuring that the gate is stopping at the proper open and close limit positions. RSAL RCE CLOSE 1.

During the open cycle another activation of the remote control will stop the gate and the next activation of the remote control will close the gate. When the gate is in the open position, activation of the remote control button will close the gate. If the remote control is activated while the gate is closing, the gate will stop and the next activation will open the gate. 30 ACCESSORY WIRING EXTERNAL CONTROL DEVICES EXIT (2 Terminals) This input is a soft open command (maintained switch does not override external safeties and does not reset alarm condition). Used for exit probe, telephone entry, external exit loop detector, or any device that would command the gate to open. • (control board) Exit Com Shadow Opens a closing gate and holds open an open gate, if maintained, pauses Timer-to-Close at OPEN limit. Com Interrupt Com SHADOW (2 Terminals) This input is used for external shadow loop detector when loop is positioned under the swing of the gate. • Holds open gate at open limit • Only active when the gate is at the OPEN limit, disregarded at all other times • Pauses Timer-to-Close at OPEN limit Interrupt Loop INTERRUPT (2 Terminals) Shadow Loop This input is used for photoelectric sensors and external interrupt loop detector when loop is on the outside of the gate. • Holds open gate at open limit • Stops and reverses a closing gate to open limit • Pauses Timer-to-Close at OPEN limit, activates quick close and anti-tailgate features when enabled on the expansion board Exit Loop VEHICLE DETECTION DEVICES Close Photoelectric Sensors The same accessory inputs used for vehicle detection devices are also used for entrapment protection devices (refer to step 7 of Installation). The vehicle detection devices may be monitored or non-monitored, but only ONE monitored device may be connected to each input, inclusive of entrapment protection devices. Multiple non-monitored devices can be wired to the same input. A monitored device sends a pulsed signal to the operator so the operator is aware of the device. If the operator does not receive the signal from the device indicating it is working properly, it will not run in that direction. Close Edge CLOSE EYES/INTERRUPT (2 Terminals) Open Photoelectric Sensors The CLOSE EYES/INTERRUPT input is for photoelectric sensor vehicle detection for the close direction. When an obstruction is sensed during gate closing the gate will open to the full open position. This input will be disregarded during gate opening and resets the Timer-to-Close. CLOSE EDGE (2 Terminals) The CLOSE EDGE input is for edge sensor vehicle detection for the close direction. When an obstruction is sensed during gate closing the gate will reverse for 4 seconds then stop, disengaging the Timer-to-Close. This input will be disregarded during gate opening. OPEN EYES/EDGE (2 Terminals) The OPEN EYES/EDGE input is for photoelectric sensor or edge sensor vehicle detection for the open direction. When an obstruction is sensed during gate opening the gate will reverse for 4 seconds then stop. This input will be disregarded during gate closing. 31 OR Open Edge ACCESSORY WIRING LOCKS (control board) MAGLOCK (2 Terminals, N.C. and COM) Maglock Relay contact output, Normally - closed (N.C.) output for maglocks.

EXPANSION BOARD OVERVIEW 1 QUICK CLOSE Switch: OFF: No change to the gate's normal operation. ON: When CLOSE EYES/Interrupt loop is deactivated it causes an opening or a stopped gate to close (ignores the Timer-to-Close). 3 1, 2, and 3 LEDs: LEDs indicating the status of the EYE/EDGE inputs. Also used to check the firmware version of the expansion board: 1. Locate the 1, 2, and 3 LEDs on the expansion board. OPEN: Loss of AC power will cause the gate to open approximately 15 seconds after AC power fail and remain OPEN until AC power is restored (enabling the Timer-to-Close). BATT: With loss of AC power, gate will remain in present position and operator is powered from batteries. 2. Disconnect AC/DC power to the main control board for 15 seconds. 3. Connect power. The 1, 2, and 3 LEDs will flash in sequence until the main control board firmware revision is displayed. When the green POWER LED glows solid the LED 1 will flash the version number, then stop, then the LED 2 will flash the revision number (for example: For version 5.1 when the green POWER LED is solid the LED 1 will flash 5 times, then stop, then the LED 2 will flash once). EXIT LOOP FAIL Switch: ANTI-TAIL Switch: OFF: When CLOSE EYES/Interrupt loop is activated it causes a closing gate to stop and reverse. ON: When CLOSE EYES/Interrupt loop is activated it causes a closing gate to pause. Once the vehicle is clear the gate will continue to close. 8 MAIN BOARD Input: Input Connection for the main board connector. 9 Input LEDs: LEDs indicating the status of the SBC, OPN, CLS, and STP inputs. 10 Loop Detector Inputs: Inputs for the Plug-In Loop Detectors (Model LOOPDETLM) AUX RELAY Switches: Set the AUX RELAY switches as needed to obtain the desired function as shown on the following page. 10 POWER 8 5 6 1 2 3 OPEN CLOSE 5 7 AC FAIL Switch: • When set to OPEN, if the EXIT plug-in loop detector detects a fault, then the gate will open and remain open until fault is cleared. When set to CLOSE, then plug-in EXIT loop detector faults are ignored (EXIT loop is faulted and inoperative). 4 EYE/EDGE Switches: Set the EYE/EDGE switches as needed to obtain the desired OPEN or CLOSE functionality.

To determine the actual cycles that the gate operator has run (in thousands), set all three Aux Relay switches to the ON setting for Aux Relay 1. The Expansion Board’s 1, 2, and 3 LEDs will blink out the cycle count, with 1 LED blinking 1000’s, 2 LED blinking 10,000’s, 3 LED blinking 100,000’s, and simultaneously all three LED’s blink 1,000,000’s (e.g. 1 LED blinks 3 times, 2 LED blinks 6 times, and 3 LED blinks once. Cycle count is 163,000.). Cycle count displayed is between 1,000 and 9,999,000 cycles. After servicing, set Aux Relay switches back to their appropriate positions. Cycle count cannot be reset or changed. If under 1,000 cycles the 1, 2, and 3 LEDs will turn on for 10 seconds, then turn off. NOTE: The expansion board will flash the cycle count 3 times then all the LEDs will turn on solid for 10 seconds then turn off.

C. B C D E MAINTENANCE IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION To reduce the risk of SEVERE INJURY or DEATH: • READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS. • ANY maintenance to the operator or in the area near the operator MUST NOT be performed until disconnecting the electrical power (AC or solar and battery) and locking-out the power via the operator power switch. Upon completion of maintenance the area MUST be cleared and secured, at that time the unit may be returned to service. • Disconnect power at the fuse box BEFORE proceeding. Operator MUST be properly grounded and connected in accordance with national and local electrical codes. NOTE: The operator should be on a separate fused line of adequate capacity. • NEVER let children operate or play with gate controls. Keep the remote control away from children. • ALWAYS keep people and objects away from the gate. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE MOVING GATE. • The entrance is for vehicles ONLY. Pedestrians MUST use separate entrance. • Test the gate operator monthly. The gate MUST reverse on contact with a rigid object or reverse when an object activates the noncontact sensors. After adjusting the force or the limit of travel, retest the gate operator. Failure to adjust and retest the gate operator properly can increase the risk of INJURY or DEATH. • Use the manual disconnect release ONLY when the gate is not moving. • KEEP GATES PROPERLY MAINTAINED. Read the owner’s manual. Have a qualified service person make repairs to gate hardware. • ALL maintenance MUST be performed by a LiftMaster professional. • Activate gate ONLY when it can be seen clearly, is properly adjusted and there are no obstructions to gate travel. • To reduce the risk of FIRE or INJURY to persons use ONLY LiftMaster part 29-NP712 for replacement batteries. • SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. • ALWAYS wear protective gloves and eye protection when changing the battery or working around the battery compartment. MAINTENANCE CHART Disconnect all power (AC, solar, battery) to the operator before servicing. The operator's AC Power switch ONLY turns off AC power to the control board and DOES NOT turn off battery power. ALWAYS disconnect the batteries to service the operator. DESCRIPTION TASK CHECK AT LEAST ONCE EVERY MONTH Entrapment Protection Devices Warning Signs Manual Release Gate Check and test for proper operation Make sure they are present Check and test for proper operation Inspect for wear or damage Accessories Electrical Mounting Hardware Operator Batteries Check all for proper operation Inspect all wire connections Check for tightness Inspect for wear or damage Replace 6 MONTHS 3 YEARS X X X X X X X X X NOTES: • Severe or high cycle usage will require more frequent maintenance checks. • It is suggested that while at the site voltage readings be taken at the operator. Using a digital voltmeter, verify that the incoming voltage to the operator is within ten percent of the operator’s rating. BATTERIES Batteries will degrade over time depending on temperature and usage. The operator alarm will beep 3 times with a command if the battery is low. Batteries do not perform well in extremely cold temperatures. For best performance, the batteries should be replaced every 3 years. Use only LiftMaster part 29-NP712 for replacement batteries. The standard control box comes with two 7AH batteries. Two 33AH (A12330SGLPK) may be used in place of the 7AH batteries for a Large Metal Control Box solar installation. A battery tray (model K1036183) and battery harness (model LA500SLRHARN) are required for 33AH applications. The batteries contain lead and need to be disposed of properly. 36 TROUBLESHOOTING To protect against fire and electrocution: • DISCONNECT power (AC or solar and battery) BEFORE installing or servicing operator. For continued protection against fire: • Replace ONLY with fuse of same type and rating.

Configuration of three sets of two 10W paralleled panels put in series. Configuration of three sets of two 10W paralleled panels put in series. • Two 7AH batteries (29-NP712) • Two 33AH Batteries (Model A12330SGLPK) • Solar Battery Harness (Model K94-36891) • Solar Battery Harness (Model LA500SLRHARN) • Battery Tray (Model K10-36183) Disconnect the expansion board if it is not in use to improve performance. We recommend LiftMaster low power draw accessories to minimize power draw, refer to accessory page. Use the tables below to see performance trade-offs. NOTE: Input solar power is 24 Vdc at 60 watts maximum. The solar panel(s) must be located in an open area clear of obstructions and shading for the entire day. The gate operator is not supported in northern climates where temperatures reach below -4˚F. This is due to cold weather and a reduced number of hours of sunlight during the winter months. Cycle rate may vary from solar chart for areas that reach below 32˚F. Solar panels should be cleaned on a regular basis for best performance to ensure proper operation. SOLAR USAGE GUIDE The LA500DC has industry leading solar performance due to highly efficient electronics that draw very little power while the gate is not in use (standby). Typical System Standby Battery Current Consumption (mA) System Configuration 2 mA Main control board draw with no remote controls programmed +1 mA Low band radio receiver active (one or more wireless transmitters learned) +1 mA High band radio active (MyQ device programmed) +10 mA Expansion board +2 mA Per loop detector (up to 3 loop detectors can be plugged into the expansion board) This low current draw drastically increases the number of days the operator can remain in standby. To determine your system’s performance, reference the above table and determine how many milliamps (mA) your system will draw from the batteries. EXAMPLE 1: A system with only a main control board and one or more hand held remote controls programmed will draw 3 mA from the batteries while the system is in standby. EXAMPLE 2: A system with only a main control board, one or more hand held remote controls programmed, and 20 mA of external accessories connected to the main control board's accessory power output will draw 23 mA from the batteries while the system is in standby. EXAMPLE 3: A system with a main control board, expansion board, two loop detectors, and one or more hand held remote controls programmed will draw 17 mA from the batteries while the system is in standby.

In general, the panel(s) should be mounted using the provided angle bracket facing due south. Use a compass to determine direction. The solar panel(s) should be mounted in an area clear of all obstructions and shading from buildings and trees. If the panel(s) is not casting a shadow, the battery is not being charged. TIPS: • Tall trees or buildings that do not shade the solar panel(s) in the summer could shade the solar panel(s) during the winter months when the sun sits lower in the sky. • The area around the solar panel(s) should be clear of shadows or obstructions to the sun for a 180° arc east to west. • Wire runs should be kept as short as possible. The solar panel(s) can be located up to 100 feet (30.48 m) from the operator using #16 AWG wire in any direction, including elevating it. • DO NOT install solar panel near potential shading or obstructions that will block the panel during any part of the day.
